Default Which Electric Cutouts?

Hello Everyone,

I'm looking to get some 3" electric cutouts and want some info on which brands you have had the best luck with.

Also I have seem some people say they leak, Whats the truth behind that? If they do leak would opening and closing them only when the car is off help prevent that from happening(Just a thought)?

Thanks for the link Lithium. From those posts I'm leaning towards DMH. Can anyone tell me some sponsors that carry the DMH and/or the QTP?

Also I'm going to run slp stainless into custom Y pipe thru a flowmaster merge collector. Which would be better. To put dual cutouts before the merge or one cutout after? I'm assuming dual will be better.

put it in the I pipe toward the rear...it will help prolong its life due to there being less heat back there
